Release that Witch Chapter 366: White Paper
After the heavy snowfall of Months of Demons, Scarlet Water River has become the only accessible road for Western Region.
The H.M.S. Lion Heart is much more spacious than the previous small sailing boat. It can accommodate a simple kitchen, and you can eat hot food even while traveling.
His bedroom is naturally an independent single room where Duke originally lived. It is located at the stern of the ship, similar to the dungeon of a sea boat. Through the window, you can see the continuous river and floating ice under it.
"Master, the egg soup you want," Knight delivered the earthenware pot and porcelain bowl to his room.
"It's hard," Petrov nodded. "You can also sit down and drink a bowl, warm your body."
Since His Highness the Prince pledged all other Four Great Families's Knight to Border Town and informed that they would not accept the redemption, the first thing those noble did was to send the family members of Knight to the past. Solicit new Knight, or simply eat it yourself.
Only Honeysuckle Family did not suffer too much loss in this war. Instead, it grew rapidly through the agent Longsong Stronghold. Now it has steadily stabilized Four Great Families and has a more complete Knight team. The Knight Seth around is just a member of the team. Although not as well-known as Morning Light, it can be regarded as one of the more outstanding young Knight.
"Yes," he smiled, lifted the lid of the crock, poured soup for Petrov, "but ... are you really good to do that?"
"Do you mean witch?"
"Yeah, although the church was burned, it is not difficult to build another one. Church will one day return to Western Region. As long as you push all the responsibilities to Fourth Prince, they will not say anything. But you are in front of the people. He rescued a witch and arrested Church's believers ... "Knight hesitated," This is tantamount to a blatant opposition to Church. "
"Since it is not difficult to build another one, why is that place still in ruins?" Petrov blew the fragrant egg soup, "Church will not return to Western Region."
Seth blinked, it seemed that he did not believe this conclusion.
When the heat of the egg soup subsides a bit, he takes a sip and exhales contentedly. "As a custodian, the most important is to understand the true intention of the person in charge. His Highness promotes education and activation in stronghold. The recruits and performances of the Border Town training, which obviously means drama, obviously reduce the influence of Church's to the minimum. Since I have become the manager of stronghold because of His Highness, I naturally follow his will to govern stronghold. If this is the case, I ca n’t see it, I ’m afraid he will replace me with someone else immediately. ”Petrov shrugged.“ Do n’t let the church rebuild is just a handy effort. Stonemason and carpenters should have received warnings. Even if there are believers who want to build their own, Mouse will let these people Can't work. "
"But Church"
"If His Highness the Prince does this, it means that he will not be afraid of Church's retaliation, or that he has the confidence to block out Church. If they can set foot in Western Region again, it only means that His Highness has failed. If he fails, , I also sit on the main seat of stronghold castle with impossible, you should understand this truth.
"Do you think Fourth Prince can beat the Church's army?" Seth wondered.
"Who knows," Petrov smiled and shook his head. "One year ago, I'm afraid no one thought he could resist the Knight group of Duke Ryan." He got up and lifted the crock, "I'll go and see the little boy Girl, she might be hungry too. "
...
The girl's name is White Paper.
No doubt, only homeless children will use such casual names.
Since she was aboard, she has remained silent in the cabin below the deck. Even if her fingers are red and her body is shaking, she doesn't say a word. For the sake of insurance, Petrov also wore her with God Punishment Lock. After all, how could His Highness promote witch like ordinary people, and he would not fully believe that such a person with incredible power would really be an unintentional act like ordinary people. May cause harm to themselves.
"Why not lie in a quilt?" Petrov points to the limited space of a hammock suspended from the first section of the cabin. Sailors usually sleep in suspended hammocks, covered with burlap. It is not comfortable, but At least it's warm.
"It will get dirty," she whispered.
"The sailor will not be cleaner than you," he found, and sat down in a fairly dry place. "This journey will take three days, and you plan to sit like this all the time? I'm afraid I haven't arrived at Border Town yet. I'm going to die on the road. "
"Border Town?" White Paper froze.
"Did I tell you? Go to a place suitable for witch." Petrov opened the crock, "Come and drink hot soup, and then lie down on a hammock."
The girl did not refuse this time, and she could see that she was really hungry. She picked up the crock and drank directly, and she was not afraid of being burned.
Petrov shook her head. Her body was as thin as a monkey. The dirt on her hair had consolidated. Where did she pick up her clothes? There were several holes in it. From the appearance, it was no different from the stronghold homeless children. .
"Who is the boy protecting you?" he asked, "your homeless children friend?"
"Snake Tooth, he ... often gives us ... bring something to eat." White Paper swallowed soup and spit out his tongue, vaguely saying, "As long as I go with you, you ... will not catch him. Right? He doesn't ... it's witch. "
"Of course," Petrov said blankly, "he doesn't matter at all." The phrase that often brought food surprised him slightly. Such people rarely appeared in slums. Food shortages led to robbing each other. Sometimes it happens that when you can't live, how can you care about other people. And the name Snake Tooth ... a bit like the style of Mouse.
Thinking of it here, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you say we have any other witch besides you?"
"No," White Paper shook his head, "Everyone is an orphan of nearby."
This reassures Petrov a little, "What about the old **** stick's ability to remove snow? I'm the first time I have seen witch dare to use his ability in front of everyone."
"The proposal of Snake Tooth, he said that I can help the residents to quickly clear the snow on the roof and exchange some food, so that everyone will not be hungry. The theater is playing the story of witch all day, and now people are not afraid witch, as long as I am willing to do it, he will go to those adults to negotiate. "
So that's it, Petrov ca n’t help but raise his mouth. This guy is quite interesting. He knows how to make good use of the natural resource in his hand, but it is too small to underestimate the influence of Church's.
"Yeah ..." White Paper lowered his head. "I swept three roofs. One drove me out, and the other two gave me half a loaf of bread and a pancake. But by the fourth ... ... "
I met the old woman who was full of hate. Petrov patted her head. "After drinking, take a good rest. I will send someone to notify you when dinner."
Three days later, H.M.S. Lion Heart arrived at Border Town dock.
